 MAHA IMEDION AA 2100 mAh Rechargeable Batteries MAHA's next-generation nickel metal hydride battery the ‘IMEDION’. Rechargeable Batteries have an inherent characteristic to release their stored energy in small amounts (this phenomenon is called ‘self-discharge’). This property is particularly noticeable in rechargeable batteries such as Nickel Metal Hydride Batteries etc. as compared to dry cell batteries, hence disabling rechargeable batteries from becoming batteries that ‘customers can use immediately after purchase’. How MAHA reduced the self-discharge of NiMH Batteries. Modern Ni-MH batteries consist of two metal stripes ( anode and cathode ), which are separated by a non-conductive porous plastic foil ( separator ). These three stripes are laid on top of each other and are winded to a coil. This coil is put in a metal can and immersed with a liquid ( electrolyte ). Then the metal can is closed with a cap. The self discharge of Ni-MH batteries is caused by three main reasons: * the chemical decomposition of the cathode, * the natural disaggregation of the anode, * Impurities of the anode. Now, how has the self-discharge in the MAHA IMEDION been reduced? The chemical decomposition of the cathode has been reduced substantially by the use of an advanced NEW Technology that has been refined by MAHA. As an additional benefit this technology increases the electrical capacity of the battery and reduces the internal resistance, which allows higher discharge currents than older NiMH Batteries. Another advantage of the reduced decomposition of this alloy is the fact, that less strategic metal is needed to stabilize the alloy. The anode has been strengthened by another new material, which reduces the natural disaggregation. Additionally the separator and the used electrolyte have been optimized for low self discharge of the Imedion. Low self-discharge - the key-advantageWhat makes the IMEDION different than older NiMH Batteries? The key-advantage of the Maha Imedion compared to usual rechargeable batteries is its extremely low self-discharge.
The IMEDION will Retain Capacity... Even After 12 Months of non-useOnce charged, Imedion retains its charged capacity even after 6 or 12 months of storage IMEDION batteries are pre charged and are ready for immediate use after purchase, straight from the pack. Just like Primary Batteries. There is no need to charge-before-use. Comparison of remaining capacity over time 
( 90 per cent of the charge after 6 months, 85 per cent after 12 months ) For a rechargeable battery this is a revolutionary advantage. No more worries about the state of charge of your battery. Just, charge them and keep them. Even after months you will still have an almost fully charged battery. In contrast to a disposable battery the IMDEION can be charged 1000 times. This saves the environment and your purse. Thus one IMEDION saves the waste of 1000 disposable batteries. MAHA has been a market leader in nickel metal hydride batteries for the consumer market. The synergy of the following proprietary technologies of MAHA ENERGY in developing high capacity products has made the successful development of ‘Imedion’ possible: 1. high-performance negative electrode ‘superior alloy’2. make-up of battery material and battery plates 3. maintain quality despite being out of use for a long time These are a few of the technologies that have helped contain self-discharge during the period for which the battery is not in use. Furthermore, it also inhibits voltage reduction even after a long period of being out of use.
IMEDION is the right battery for all your applications. It replaces disposable batteries in
IMEDION - the only battery you will ever needOne battery for all applicationsDoes this sound familiar to you? You stand in the electronic shop and you only came there to purchase a pack of batteries. But the rack in front of you is full of batteries. Batteries for this application and batteries for that application, cheap batteries, expensive ones, red, yellow, blue and green batteries, disposable batteries, rechargeable batteries, AA, AAA, C and D sizes - You are confused.
There is an end to this confusion.
IMEDION is the right battery for all your applications. It replaces disposable batteries in No more need for special batteries Several manufacturers offer special disposable batteries for certain applications like cameras or audio. They claim, that only these special batteries have enough power to run these applications. No more need for these expensive special batteries. IMEDION is powerful enough to run all these applications without problem and even better than any of the special disposable batteries.
Expensive batteries or cheap batteries? Sure, also in batteries performance and quality is not for free. But please compare the price of IMEDION with the price of high quality disposable batteries. - And remember, that you can use one IMEDION 1000 times. The decision should be easy.
IMEDION means more performance for your digicamWith IMEDION you can make substantially more shots with your digital camera than with any other disposable battery. The main advantages of Ni-MH rechargeable batteries exist also in the IMEDION: - appr. 4 time more shots than with alkaline batteries - high performance even at low temperatures down to –10 °C during your winter vacation - rechargeable and therefore cheaper on the long run. Additional advantages of IMEDION In comparison to other, conventional Ni-MH rechargeable batteries IMEDION offers several additional advantages for the foto-amateur: - IMEDION can be stored in charged state - in the camera or separate as backup replacement. - The state of charge can be predicted very well and can be planned. - The time you need for charging the battery is not relevant any more, because the IMEDION can be charged long before the actual application and kept charged. - expensive quick-chargers are no longer necessary. - never again forget to charge before you start your trip. Charging made easyCharge your battery when you want With normal rechargeable batteries it made sense to charge them just before you wanted to use them. Too much risk otherwise, that the battery did not provide full power, when needed. Therefore there was a checkpoint on every vacation checklist: Charge batteries.
The the endless time, till the batteries are finally charged. Even with the most advanced and most expensive chargers it still takes 15 minutes. This can be very long 15 minutes, if the taxi is waiting at the door. Now you can forget all this. Charge the IMEDION, whenever you have time for it and store them. The extremely low self discharge of IMEDION saves you from all the charging stress.
When you use IMEDION in your household equipment, spend some extra money and purchase a set of spare IMEDION batteries. Keep these spare IMEDION batteries stored in a charged state and you will always have fresh batteries at hand whenever you need them.
Chargers Basically the MAHA IMEDION is a modern evolutionary Ni-MH battery, which can be charged like any other Ni-MH battery. Therefore IMEDION can be charged also with other, modern chargers, which are suitable to charge older Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. Also MAHA cannot be held responsible for any damage to IMEDION batteries caused by unsuitable chargers. <-- Low Discharge Battery FAQ's - Frequently Asked Questions about IMEDION Low Discharge batteries.
 What are Low Discharge NiMH Batteries? The New Low Discharge NiMH Rechargeable Batteries are capable of holding their charge for several months. The Imedion can actually maintain up to 85% of their charge for up to a year according to Maha, unlike standard NiMH batteries which start to loose their charge very quickly. Also the Imedion Batteries can be charged up to 1000 times. Are there any trade offs to using these New Low Discharge NiMH Batteries? Yes there is. These new batteries have a slightly lower capacity than older NiMH Batteries. However they all are designed to actually have a longer useful life than standard NiMH batteries, a much lower self discharge rate and they also are actually capable of delivering a higher current during use . The Maha Imedion actually have out performed 2500 mAh batteries in our tests, plus most of the capacity is not wasted as with standard NiMH batteries due to their self discharge. Can these New NiMH Batteries still be used in High Discharge Devices like Digital Cameras ? Yes they can. Plus due to their Low Self Discharge rate they can also be used in devices like remote controls, flashlights as well. Basically you can use these batteries more like you would standard alkaline batteries. All of these batteries come charged and ready to use right out of the package, and can be recharged at any time without any fear of memory effect. What type of useful life can I expect from these new Low-Discharge NiMH batteries ? These new style Low-Discharge batteries can be recharged up to a 1000 times. Plus due to their Low Self Discharge rate they will help avoid another problem that often occurs with standard NiMH Batteries. How often have you went to use your older NiMH batteries after several months of no use and not found that your batteries are completely dead and will would no longer accept a charge. Standard NiMH batteries can become totally un-chargeable after just a few months of no use. These Newer NiMH Low-Discharge batteries will not only maintain a charge longer than standard NiMH batteries but are certain to take a charge even after several months of no use. Do these Imedion Low Discharge Batteries require a special charger ? These new batteries can be fully charged with any good quality charger such as our Maha MH-C204W, MH-C401FS, MH-C204GT, MH-C9000, MH-C800S, MH-C801D, or the MH-C808M.
